Hodgson admits Palace battling to keep Olise

Veteran manager Roy Hodgson admits that Crystal Palace face a battle to hold onto Michael Olise.

The Frenchman, who is currently out with an injury, is a target for several top clubs.

He is being linked with a move to Chelsea, Manchester City, and Paris Saint-Germain.

“We have a fight on our hands to make sure he stays with us," Hodgson told reporters.

“We had two outstanding wingers who were almost the best in the league – Michael Olise on the right side and Wilf on the left.

“We don't have Wilf anymore. Clubs are circling around Olise."
